Get ready for a night of glam, glitter, and ghoulish fun! Join GSAI and LGBTQ+ Lorain County this Halloween for a high-energy Drag Show celebrating creativity, self-expression, and community. Come in costume, enjoy incredible performances, and celebrate in a vibrant, inclusive space. Open to all!

Get ready to Slay the Night with LGBTQ+ Lorain County and the Oberlin College Office of Gender, Sexuality, & Attraction Initiatives (GSAI) for a spooky, campy, high-energy night of drag at the Oberlin ’Sco!

The show will feature five incredible seasoned performers, plus a lineup of Hot Spot performers who are newer to drag and burlesque and ready to take the stage. Come cheer them on, show them some love, and help us create a fun and welcoming space for both established and emerging performers.

Doors open at 9 and the show begins at 10 p.m.

Admission is free for Oberlin College students and staff with a valid Oberlin ID, but a ticket reservation is still required in advance due to venue capacity. General admission for all other guests is $5, and advance tickets are also required.

If you are able, we encourage you to make an additional donation when reserving your ticket to support LGBTQ+ Lorain County and help us continue creating inclusive community programming and events.

Please also remember to bring cash to tip the performers throughout the night. Tips go directly to the artists and are one of the best ways to show your appreciation.

Spooky attire is highly encouraged, so come dressed in your favorite Halloween look, whether that means glamorous, creepy, campy, witchy, monstrous, or somewhere in between. For everyone’s safety, masks that fully cover the face and any costume items resembling weapons are not permitted.

Come ready to cheer, tip, laugh, scream, and celebrate a night of drag, creativity, and queer community.
